Story
Peaches is the sweetest little 2 year old girl. She’s a mix of tortoise shell and main coon. She was brought to Wisconsin from a rescue in Indiana. We have one other cat and she’s been wonderful with him since the beginning. We also have kids ranging from 6 y/o to 11 y/o and she is wonderful with the kids. The issue is that she is a little timid and nervous and the unpredictability and loud noises that come along with little kids seems to be scaring her. We’ve tried anti-anxiety medicine, but she still gets very nervous and our house just doesn’t seem like the right place for her. She loves to cuddle and play with toys. She chatters and talks to us when we get up in the morning. We are devastated to have to re-home her, but it doesn’t seem fair to her to keep her in our house. She would do great with someone who is single, or with older kids or an older couple without kids. No matter where she ends up she will soak up the attention 💕

Hello, I'm Alfie. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'll be the first to greet you at the door. I'm a curious and mellow fellow who enjoys a good chat. I prefer my paws on the ground, not being much for being picked up. But I promise, my friendly nature will win you over. I've got a heart full of love to give to someone who'll appreciate my sweet, easy-going personality. Adopt me, and I'll fill your home with gentle companionship and soothing purrs. Est.

Story
Bagheera isn’t just your average cat—he’s a curious adventurer with a knack for mischief! One of his quirkiest habits is digging in his water bowl, as if he’s on a mission to uncover hidden treasure. And when it comes to exploring, he takes it to a whole new level. Bagheera has figured out how to open file cabinet drawers, methodically working his way down from one to the next from the inside. Not stopping there, he’s also mastered the art of opening the pantry—always on the hunt for his next big discovery. His curious and playful spirit will keep you endlessly entertained! Bagheera is sweet and slightly shy. He would love a quiet home with a playful cat friend. He deserves to find a loving forever home. Could it be with you? Bagheera is sweet and slightly shy.

Story
Gadge is a total mama's boy and he often needs a little reassurance from his human, usually in the form of treats. One of his favorite activities is to climb the highest point in the room and then cry because he wants assistance getting down (though he is able to do it on his own). There isn't a treat that he has met that he doesn't like Est. DOB July 6th 2023, Gadge is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated to age, and tested Felv/FIV negative.

Story
This handsome boy is a bit shy at first, but is the sweetest cat. He has a very calm personality and does not mind other cats. He is a bit playful, yet mostly wants to lay with his favorite human and chill. He gets along well with other cats and would do well in a quiet home. Tabasco is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested Felv/FIV negative. Tabasco is an FIP Survivor. He received 84 days of antiviral injections and passed an additional 84 day observation period. FIP is a mutation of feline coronavirus that can happen in some cats who have lower immune systems or who have a genetic predisposition. There is no continued care required after treatment. Most cats have been exposed to feline coronavirus and only a small percentage will experience a mutation. You can read more about FIP here: https://www.sockfip.org
